L.S.U. must now hope for an Alabama loss to Auburn and a Texas A&M victory Saturday to reach next weekend’s SEC championship game.

¶ Andrew Furney kicked a 27-yard field goal on Washington State’s first possession of overtime, and the Cougars overcame an 18-point deficit in the fourth quarter to stun No. 25 Washington, 31-28, in the Apple Cup.

¶ Rex Burkhead scored the go-ahead touchdown in his return from a knee injury and No. 17 Nebraska beat host Iowa, 13-7, to claim a berth in the Big Ten championship game. The Huskers (10-2, 7-1 Big Ten) will face Wisconsin next Saturday in Indianapolis.
